“I drive a lot. I noticed that when driving on hot days 80+ on long drives 1 hour+ on the interstate, my cars power and rpms basically shut down. This happened multiple times starting around 50k miles. The transmission overheated and put the car into a safety mode. The transmission overheated due to a manufacturing issue. That would be, Nissan failing to proper equip the coolant system on the transmission. …”

“While driving my 2014 Nissan JUKE it went from 70 to 20 on the interstate and I was almost ran over by large trucks that were unable to stop. This has happened multiple times. While driving to work this time, it dropped in speed again and the rpms went over 6 but the car would not move. I push the gas to the floor and nothing happens. I am afraid to drive my car home from work due to impending death concerns.”
